7 Pre-Season Shouts for Young Player of the Year

Gabriel Jesus

Gabriel Jesus could play a big role in Manchester City’s title defence this season, alongside fellow forward Sergio Aguero, in what could be one of the Premier League’s all-time most lethal strike partnerships.

The 21-year-old scored 17 goals in all competitions last season in a campaign that saw Pep Guardiola’s side waltz to victory in the league and Carabao Cup.

The striker has scored ten goals in 22 appearances for Brazil since making his debut in 2016, and started all five games for his nation at this summer’s World Cup in Russia.
